Those Fake Hoops...

Wonder what it is that makes some defenders more susceptible to scoring own goals?

Dunne has 10 now in his career, and Skrtel has 6 (including two in one game) and probably has a few seasons yet to 'improve' on that.

I'd imagine Skrtel will surpass Carragher's 7 before too long.

Poor positioning maybe?

[Sanguine]

Probably - you've generally got to be facing the goal to put it in your own net, which implies you've been turned by your man/let him get the wrong side of you.

Skrtel has a reputation at Liverpool for throwing himself in the way of everything - he's got bucketfuls of deflected goals off his shins and arse too. Bit of that in it too.

Was it all a bit confusing for you yesterday at Loftus Road, in the away end with your Reading shirt on?

Don't think it's been mentioned on here.. 'Arry calling Taarabt 3 stone over weight. He also claims he could do more running than Taarabt did in a reserve game last week.

[AthleticoSpizz]

Think that it might already been alluded to but regardless... (for once) fair f11cks to 'arry

About time that managers said what they were really thinking..................he inadvertently spoke a million words for the fans

[Royal Rother]

Tbf, he often does.

It's just a shame you can't trust anything that comes out of his mouth.

[AthleticoSpizz]

lol 'arry for parliament

[6ft Kerplunk]

Nice bit of deflecting by 'Arry too. Not sure Taarabt playing all season would have shored up that defence.

As I've been saying forever, taarabt is the rich man's Lee trundle, sounds like he's going for the full effect

[Sanguine]

Taarabt says he isn't overweight.

Tbf he appears to have a point.

I would expect a pro-footballer to a be a bit more toned than that though. No sign of a 6-pack.

[Sanguine]

Hardly '3 stone overweight' though, is he?

[YateleyRoyal]

Didn't realise a six-pack helped you kick a ball either.

Love-handles help with balance. That's my excuse anyway.

[Winston Smith]

Most clubs have a body fat % (i believe it is usually around 11) that players have to keep themselves at.

true fact

No, but if you 'train' every day, you certainly should have a better body than that. Plenty of footballers with ability out there, but it's those that go that extra mile who are World Class.

[Maguire]

I'd go a bit further than Kes and say that he looks out of shape to me. I'd say he's half a stone or so overweight and has terrible ab definition for a pro baller.
